Makena: See Me, Hear Me, Know Me

A Gift Worth Celebrating

Then, something amazing happens. Makena’s phone lights up from a bunch of other videos and positive responses! People are sharing something uncomfortable or unknown about themselves… it turns out many people have similar stories to Makena’s.

A few days later, the man who called the cops comes to the house to apologize to the girls. He admits that he was wrong to jump to conclusions.

Several days later, Makena receives a package in the mail from Auntie Bling. It’s a t-shirt with her words printed on them. Auntie Bling also sent a nice message saying that continuing to wear the shirt will continue to send a message. And then, Makena has an idea: she wants to put on a show called Powerful Statements/Powerful Style. It will feature her friends, wearing clothes that represent them.

The friends take turns taking center stage, explaining who they truly are, and why their clothes represent them. The show gets an incredible response! Makena explains that when you take the time to truly get to know somebody, you see who they truly are.
